OK 1 General and 18 mounted 1/72nd cavalry mounted and based and 4 dismounted cavalry painted and a bunch of older figures sorted and ......and..well, I've had enough fiddling with 1/72nd stuff for a bit.

If I'm stern with myself I should be able to at least paint some of the remaining
pre-cut-but-thinner-than-I-would-like bases green and glue the rest of the chosen selection of old figures onto to bases before they all get jumbled up again. I'll flock them next time I get in the mood then I need to name all the regiments.

Six weeks until the Winter Campaigning Season opens. In the meantime, back to painting some nice, big, simple, glossy toy soldiers with an occasional quick game.

Well done Ross, great looking cavalry!
ReplyDeleteThanks
DeleteThose are really nice Ross? What figures are they?
ReplyDeleteThese are Italeri apart from one lone metal casting who is I, think, HH.
DeleteNice work ! , Ah the curse of the shooting to the left mounted figure so beloved off figure designers .
ReplyDeleteYep: the 'head shot' guys generally find themselves on the end of the line in my armies. Bally annoying pose. Great looking cavalry, Ross!
